JUST A PEBBLE IN THE ROAD OF LIFE
LYING THERE IN THE DARK OF NIGHT
NO BUILDING DO I HELP SUPPORT OR HOLD
UNABLE TO CARRY LIFE’S HEAVY LOAD
BUT WITH MY SAVIOR AS MY ROCK I STAND
UNABLE TO BE MOVED BY PRINCIPALITIES OR MORTAL MAN
FOR HIS STRENGTH IS SUFFICIENT TO SUPPLY ALL MY NEEDS
BY THE POWER OF JESUS SHED BLOOD HE SAVED AND LIFTED ME
ON HIGHER GROUND IN A CITY SOMEDAY
I’LL BE ONE OF CHILDREN IN THE KING’S FAMILY
WHILE HERE ON EARTH I MUST HELP TO GUIDE
WONDERING SOULS TOWARDS HIS KINGDOM ON HIGH
ALONG WITH MY SISTERS AND BROTHERS I HAVE FOUND MY USE
IN PREPARING THE PATHWAY TO GOD’S WORDS OF TRUTH
HIS STORY MUST BE TOLD TO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH
BY NO OTHER NAME THAN JESUS IS THERE ANY HOPE OF OBTAINING THE NEW BIRTH
JESUS SHED BLOOD IS THE MORTAR THAT HOLDS AND BINDS
EACH PEBBLE IN PLACE THROUGH THE AGES OF TIME
NO LONGER A COLD AND LIFELESS STONE LYING THERE
NOW BECOMING A JEWEL, SO LOVELY, SO PRECIOUS, SO FAIR
LIFE’S TRIALS AND TRIBULATIONS SMOOTHING MY ROUGH AND JAGGED EDGES
WITH THE HEAT OF CHRIST PASSION MY HEART IS REFASHIONED
WE EACH HAVE BEEN CREATED TO BE INCLUDED IN THE MOSAIC OF LIFE
ITS THEME BEING OUR CORNER STONE, JESUS CHRIST
